   The UK embraced faggots and encourage them to pollute the blood supply   
   there.  Look what it did.   
      
   Rishi Sunak has promised to pay "comprehensive compensation" to people   
   affected by the infected blood scandal.   
      
   The prime minister said the government would pay "whatever it costs"   
   following a damning report on the scandal, which saw 30,000 people infected.   
      
   A public inquiry found authorities had exposed victims to unacceptable risks   
   and covered up the NHS's biggest treatment disaster.   
      
   The government will set out compensation details on Tuesday.   
      
   Ministers have reportedly earmarked around £10bn for a compensation package.   
      
   The Infected Blood Inquiry accused doctors, government and the NHS of   
   letting patients catch HIV and hepatitis while they were receiving NHS care   
   between the 1970s and 1990s.   
      
   About 3,000 have since died and more deaths will follow.   
      
   Mr Sunak described the release of the report as a "day of shame for the   
   British state" and vowed to pay "comprehensive compensation" to those   
   affected and infected by the scandal.   
      
   "Whatever it costs to deliver this scheme, we will pay it," he told the   
   House of Commons on Monday.   
      
   He said Cabinet Office minister John Glen would set out the details of   
   compensation on Tuesday.   
      
   Members of the infected blood community said that they expected the   
   government to set out how much compensation would be paid, simplified into a   
   few categories.   
      
      
   Sir Keir Starmer, leader of the opposition Labour party, apologised too for   
   his party's involvement whilst in government and welcomed the Conservative   
   prime minister's confirmation of financial support for victims, saying   
   Labour would "work with him to get that done swiftly".   
      
   'Compensation must be paid now'   
   The inquiry looked at over 50 years of decision-making before, during and   
   after the infection of thousands of people from contaminated blood   
   transfusions and blood products from the 1970s onwards.   
      
   The 2,527-page report found the infected blood scandal "could largely have   
   been avoided" and there had been a cover-up to hide the truth.   
      
   Deliberate attempts were made to conceal the disaster, including evidence of   
   Whitehall officials destroying documents, the inquiry found.   
      
      
   "People put their trust in doctors and the government to keep them safe and   
   that trust was betrayed...   
      
   "That's why what I'm recommending is that compensation must be paid now."   
      
   Sir Brian's two interim reports, in July 2022 and April 2023, made   
   recommendations about compensation for victims and their families.   
      
   The government has already made interim pay-outs of £100,000 each to about   
   4,000 survivors and bereaved partners.   
      
   Further interim payments could also be announced on Tuesday, which would be   
   paid before the full compensation scheme is implemented.   
      
   Two main groups were caught up in the scandal:   
      
   One was people with haemophilia or similar rare genetic disorders preventing   
   their blood properly clotting   
   The second group included people who had had a blood transfusion after   
   childbirth, accidents or during medical treatment.
